Analog Input 23AE23




Application, characteristics and technical data have
to be taken from the hardware data sheet:

23AE23 1KGT 150 573
Operation
The 23AE23 board scans analog current- or voltage
signals and prepares them for the RTU560 on the
basis of predefined parameters.
Processing functions
The micro controller EAP (Ein-/ Ausgabe -
Prozessor / Input- output processor) controls the
A/D converter and reads the digitized analog meas-
ured value. The configuration parameters are
loaded by the CMU (communication unit). The used
processing functions of the 23AE23 are defined by
the RTU560.
In general the 23AE23 board can process the fol-
lowing functions per input channel.

Input signal conversion
The A/D converter operates by the sigma-delta
method. Each input signal is internally converted
with 16 bit resolution. This high resolution allows to
scan some input ranges with one shunt. With the
information about the to be scanned input range set
by the switch registers S1 to S3, the 23AE23 board
can do the calculation for the 11 bit resolution for
100 %.
The sigma-delta method allows a high suppression
of line-frequency and line-harmonics interference
voltages. This is still specified by a deviation from
the nominal line-frequency of up to 10 %. On this
occasion the suppression is still >45 dB.
The 23AE23 transmits the measured value with 12
bit plus sign to the CMU. The scaling to the telecon-
trol transmission protocol presentation is done by
the CMU.
With a ninth internal measuring channel the
23AE23 does an automatic zero calibration at
each cycle. The A/D converter uses the result as
an rating factor.
Settings
Input signal range
A measuring range can be differently configured
for each of the eight channels. Therefore the
configuration has to be done for all eight chan-
nels. For each channel:
the switch registers S1 to S3 AND
the jumper X5x1
should be configured to the same measuring
range. Only if jumper and switch register setting
corresponds the 23AE23 scans and converts the
measuring value correct.
The configuration of jumper X5x1 is shown in
Table 1. Hereby is x =the to configure channel.
Table 2 shows the corresponding settings for
switch register S1 to S3 and the corresponding
position of jumper X5x1. For channel 5 =20 mA
as an example it should be set:
X551 jumper 5 =position 1-2
S3-5 =OFF
S2-5 =ON
S1-5 =ON
The firmware of the 23AE23 uses the position of
switch register S1 to S3 for the scaling and cal-
culation to the nominal measuring range. In ad-
dition it identifies by the position which rating
value it should use.

Configuration of line-frequency
Beside the information about the configured meas-
uring range the information about the line-frequency
is requested for the A/D-conversion. The configured
line-frequency is valid for all eight channels. There-
fore jumper X401 has to be configured.

Factory calibration
An on-site calibration of
necessary.
The 23AE23 will be calibrated for all channels and
measuring ra
tion the firmware calculates a rating value per
measuring range and channel and stores this rating
value in an EEPROM. The rating values are pro-
tected by a checksum.
The 23AE23 checks the checksum of all rating val-
ues during initialization
does not start operation if one or more of these
checksum are wrong. The 23AE23 stays passive,
that means the CMU does not detect the board and
indicates it with "board out of operation". The LED
"ST" flashes in addition with approx. 3 Hz.
Signaling
The board monitors and checks its functionality
as well as the dialog via the peripheral bus. De-
tected errors are indicated and/or transmitted by
the board:
by the red LED "ST" on the front plate
by diagnostic messages
in the process signal messages (signal
status)
The "ST" LED indicates board errors, peripheral
bus errors and/or A/D converter failures.
The "ST"-LED indicates:
board runs initialization procedure
board has detected a memory error
